Files, open beside the conversation
A third side panel, built the way the terminal is and filled the way the inspector is: tabs holding open files. Project files over SFTP in an agent chat; notes, skills, knowledge documents, this chat's text attachments and its own scratch document everywhere. Read with pygments, edited in a plain textarea, saved with a conflict check. A bug found on the way in, and the reason this needed its own read path. `ssh.read_file` ends in `clean_output`, which strips ANSI escapes and decodes with errors="replace" -- right for the output of a command, and fatal for an editor: open a file containing an escape byte, press Save, and you have silently rewritten it with the escapes gone and every undecodable byte replaced by U+FFFD. `read_text`/`write_text` decode strictly, report binary rather than mangling it, carry an mtime:size token for a file that moved underneath, and refuse an oversize write rather than truncating -- `write_file` truncates because a model is told how many bytes it wrote, and somebody pressing Save is not. The model-facing pair is untouched: what it returns is a contract a model has been shown. A truncated read opens read-only for the mirror-image reason. Six sources go through one dispatch table, for the reason tool_labels.py is a table: six independently written permission checks is how one ends up written slightly differently, and that failure looks like editing somebody else's note. A save on a project file bypasses agent/policy.py, which makes it the fourth documented exception to "the modes do not govern the keyboard" and the first that writes. Same argument as the terminal panel -- whoever owns the credential could write the file with scp -- but the consequence is larger and is now said out loud rather than left to be inferred. The model opens tabs from the file tools it was already calling, so no new schema and no tokens. It never brings one to the front: an agent reads forty files in a long reply, and taking the screen each time would drag somebody through all of them and lose any edit in progress. Only the strip is streamed, guarded on truthiness so the frame can never blank itself -- an empty one would close every open tab, the approval card you could press twice with the sign reversed. Both halves are settled on the server, which is why canvas.js needs no guard against a swap at all. No vendored editor. CodeMirror 6 needs a bundler, which is hard rule 1; CodeMirror 5 would be a larger payload than xterm on every page, and xterm is the one heavy dependency precisely because it loads only where it can be used. So: server-rendered highlighting for reading, a textarea for writing, and the panel says there is no colour while you type rather than pretending. Also here: a scratch document per chat, with `scratch_write` at RISK_READ on plan_update's argument, and a test pinning the three numbers that decide a panel's width -- LAYOUT_BOUNDS drops an unknown variable silently, so a panel missing from it has a drag handle that works and forgets. Driven under a DOM stub and against the running application. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Names that fit the chat, and a way to change one
Two things about titles were wrong. Every chat spent a second completion on its name, including an agent chat whose opening words are already a title -- somebody starting one states an objective, not a topic. An agent chat now takes `fallback_title` from its first prompt and makes no request at all; an ordinary chat, which opens with a question whose *answer* is what makes a title worth asking for, is unchanged. And renaming existed only as the `/title` slash command, which set the heading and left the sidebar row showing the old name until the next reload -- a rename that looks half-applied is one people do twice. There are pencil buttons on the heading and on every sidebar row now, both PATCHing the route that was already there, and `update_chat` answers a rename with the out-of-band pair the `done` frame has always sent, so one response moves both. Only on a rename: sending it for every PATCH would overwrite the heading from an unrelated save. `/title` sets both spans itself, being a bare fetch rather than htmx. The dialog is the `data-prompt` mechanism the folder work added, which is why the heading keeps a button rather than becoming an inline field: it sits in a flex row beside the badges and the connection chip, and swapping it for a text box moves all of them.

A folder that carries something, and a way to name one
A folder was a name and nothing else -- and not even that, since PATCH could rename one and nothing in the interface ever called it. It now carries a description, a system prompt, and seeds for the model, the kind and the agent target, with a settings page behind the row. The prompt is a fourth rung on the ladder, chat > folder > model > instance, and it goes above the model deliberately: a model's prompt describes the model wherever it is used, a folder's describes this piece of work whichever model is pointed at it. It is read when a reply is built rather than copied when a chat is made, so editing it reaches the chats already there, and the walk up the parents is bounded and cycle-safe because it runs on the request path. `api/pages.py` mirrors the ladder for the settings panel and had to gain the same rung -- a panel naming the wrong source is worse than one naming none, because it is believed. The seeds fill in what the request left empty and nothing it filled in: the folder says what this work usually needs, the screen in front of somebody says what they want this time. `ssh_profile_id` is a plain string rather than a foreign key, for the reason `compacted_through_id` is, so it is validated on read. Getting *into* a folder needed fixing too. `/api/chats/start` has accepted a folder_id since folders existed and nothing ever sent one, so the only route in was to make the chat elsewhere and move it. There is a New chat here on the row now, and `?folder=` on the new-chat screen. Naming is a themed dialog, and deliberately not htmx's hx-prompt: htmx calls the browser's prompt() synchronously and only then fires htmx:prompt with the answer already in hand, so intercepting the event cannot supply a different one and the grey box appears anyway. `data-prompt` follows the data-confirm-button shape instead -- swallow the click, ask, write the answer into hx-vals, click again behind a guard. JSON.stringify rather than concatenation, or a folder called `"` produces hx-vals that does not parse and the rename silently does nothing. Driven under a DOM stub, and there is a test that no template brings hx-prompt back. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

A menu for what a chat may use, and three keys
Six smaller things, all of them about the interface not saying what is true.
The @ button only ever inserted the character, which the @ key already does
without a button. It becomes the scope menu: what this chat may use, switched
off per chat. Chat.scope_json is filtered inside resolve_tools AFTER the
capability, permission and instance gates -- exactly as chat.knowledge_bases
narrows knowledge_search -- so a crafted POST turning something on reaches a
tool the gates already removed, and there is a test that writes the column
directly to prove it. Absent means on, for every key, so "why is this off?" has
one answer. It is keyed on the gate rather than the tool name, so notes is one
switch rather than five. The switches carry no role="menuitem", deliberately:
ui.js closes a picker when a menuitem is clicked, which is right for an action
menu and wrong for a list you want to set several of -- which is why the menu
needs no JavaScript at all. Typing @ is untouched.
With no skills, nothing should mention them. tool.skills was gated on the family
alone, so somebody with an empty library was told "the list below gives each
one's name" above no list, handed skill_get, and watched the model spend a round
finding out. It requires skills now; the writing half moved to
tool.skills_write, which is deliberately not gated, because saving the first one
is what somebody with none most needs. And core.tool_list finally reads
tool_names, which had been resolved and documented with no fragment using it.
The composer's toolbar is one row again. .composer__actions is last in the DOM
with margin-left:auto, so the moment an agent chat added a connection, a
directory and a mode, Send and the microphone dropped to a second line.
chat.css has no media queries by design and the fix is not to add one:
.composer__context is the single child allowed to shrink and scroll sideways.
There is a test asserting the file still contains no @media.
The effort picker shows the level in force. "Effort: default" named no level and
was true of nothing in particular; chat.resolved_effort is the chat's own value
and build_request reads the same field, so what is shown is what is sent. The
model's default is a seed, copied onto the row at creation and on a model
change, and never consulted at request time -- a fallback would resurrect it
underneath a cleared effort and make "off" silently do nothing. "off" is a
sentinel and not an empty value, because start_chat declares Form("") and cannot
tell absent from empty: with value="" the reader picks off and gets high.
Alt+M dictates, Alt+R reads the last reply aloud, Ctrl+Enter sends from
anywhere. All three click the button that already does the job, so audio.js
keeps its one delegated listener. Alt+M and not Alt+D, which is the address bar
in Chrome and Firefox. Ctrl+Enter never means Stop -- Send and Stop are the same
element, and Esc already stops. Driven under a DOM stub before committing, per
the rule in CLAUDE.md, and tests/test_commands_js.py pins that every key has a
row in SHORTCUTS, since /help reads that list.
And the memory tooling, which had seven defects. The worst: memory_forget was a
case-insensitive substring first-match delete with nothing warning about it, so
forgetting "coffee" against "Drinks coffee black" and "Allergic to coffee"
silently removed whichever was older -- a wrong deletion nobody would ever find
out about, from a tool whose description invited exactly the short fragment that
misfires. It matches exactly first, then by substring, and refuses an ambiguous
one while naming what it matched. add() refuses an exact duplicate. The
at-the-limit refusal no longer tells the model to delete one to make room: past
the block's budget it is not shown all of them and would be guessing, which
feeds straight back into the first defect. And context.memories no longer claims
the memories "still apply", which nothing checks and which taught a model to
trust a stale one over what the person had just said.

Two selects that never wrote anything, and a queue
The approval card in Auto mode and the missing /effort were one bug. Both
selects hung their hx-patch on an empty sibling form reached by form="…",
and htmx binds a trigger to the annotated element: change fires on the
select and bubbles to its ancestors, which a sibling is not. The live rows
read agent_mode=manual and params_json={} while the browser showed Auto and
Effort: high. policy.py was never involved.
The verb moves onto the control; the empty form stays as value scoping,
which is the half of the CLAUDE.md note that was right. conftest gains
control_named so a test asserts the element carrying the name carries the
verb, rather than asserting the markup that was there throughout.
The composer's highlight was a third instance of the same carelessness in
CSS: .tok-mention is written for the transcript and scoped to nothing, so
the mirror painted its token in accent-coloured monospace over the
textarea's own text. Scoped under .msg; the mirror restates transparency
and font rather than inheriting them, and bleeds by box-shadow.
/effort is now offered before the first prompt and _new_chat reads it.
/index re-walks the project directory on demand, file_write drops the
listing it just invalidated, and the index ladder falls through to SFTP on
a host that refuses exec instead of returning nothing.
A second message during a reply is queued rather than starting a second
concurrent generation: a real Message row with queued set, so it survives a
restart and can be withdrawn. _drain hands one on at the end of a reply,
_inject takes one in at a tool-round boundary so an agent can be steered
mid-task. Stop leaves the queue undelivered. The terminal's Auto toggle
becomes off/copy/send, and send posts straight to the chat without touching
the composer.
@ now offers notes, skills, this chat's attachments and a URL to fetch; a
knowledge base attaches as a reference rather than a copy. copy_document
carries provenance, which was the one attach path that dropped it.
Also fixes an unrelated live bug: the round loop compared against the
global MAX_ROUNDS of 3 while sizing itself from the agent budget of 40, so
agent replies stopped after three rounds and reported forty.

The menu that never appeared, and the reason it never did
composer.js built its menu lazily inside show(), and refresh() wrote list.innerHTML before calling it. `list` is null until build() has run, so the first `/` or `@` ever typed threw a TypeError and took the handler with it. The menu has never appeared in any browser. That is why /compact "isn't there": nothing was. I shipped it having only run `node --check`, which parses the file happily. So this also brings the thing that catches it: a DOM stub driven under node -- not committed, hard rule 1 stands, it is an instrument like curl. It reproduced the crash in one run and immediately found two more: choosing a command from the menu left `/help` sitting in the box so the next Enter ran it again, and Tab completed nothing. Tab now completes and Enter runs, which is the split that matters for a command taking an argument. `.select--sm` was used three times and defined nowhere. I deleted the copy in chat.css and left a comment saying it "is defined once, in app.css", where it did not exist -- so those selects fell back to plain `.select`: width 100% in a flex row where four siblings wanted the same, all of them shrinking together until each was a few characters wide, and half a rem taller than everything beside them. That was the whole of "the connection switch needs to be wider". The connection and directory move to the topbar. They cannot change -- update_chat refuses both with a 409 -- so they are facts about the chat, of a kind with the Temporary badge, not controls on the message. The mode stays by the box. Compaction says it is working. It makes a model call that takes seconds and had no indicator anywhere: `hx-indicator` appears nowhere in this codebase, and the Generation.status channel that says "Summarising earlier messages…" for the automatic path cannot be borrowed, because it lives in the streaming bubble and this endpoint refuses to run while any message is unfinished. The overflow menu now runs the same code as /compact rather than posting for itself, so there is one implementation, one spinner, and one place the endpoint's four carefully written 409s finally reach somebody. /effort, low medium high, per chat with a per-model default. It goes out twice because there is no field that works everywhere: OpenAI and vLLM read reasoning_effort, llama.cpp's own docs say other values "have no effect" and its maintainer says the field "simply gets dropped without error or logging" -- what reaches gpt-oss behind it is chat_template_kwargs. Both are sent, and only once an effort has been chosen, so a provider strict about unknown parameters sees exactly the request it always did until somebody opts in. The control appears only on a model marked `reasoning`, a flag that has existed since the beginning with no reader at all. Mentions and recognised commands are marked as you type -- a mirror behind the textarea holding the same text with every character transparent, contributing nothing but a rounded rectangle, so a pixel of drift is a misplaced rectangle rather than a doubled glyph. A command is marked only when it resolves, so `/thoughts on this` visibly is not one before you send it. And again in the transcript, where user turns had no render step at all and now escape before they inject. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

The terminal learns where one command ends, and can be dragged wider
"The last command and its output" was not something the panel could honestly offer. sendToChat took the last forty rows of the screen buffer, hard-wrapped at the terminal's width with no way to tell a wrap from a newline -- its own comment said so. So bash and zsh are given the OSC 133 markers VS Code and WezTerm use, and Copy, Send and an Auto toggle are built on those. The integration is written by the PTY command string itself, with printf. sshd runs that string through $SHELL -c, so it can case on the shell's own name and needs no probe, no second channel and no writable home. Passing it through the environment does not work -- every distribution ships AcceptEnv LANG LC_*, so anything else is dropped silently -- and feeding `source ...` in as keystrokes races a slow .zshrc, echoes into the scrollback and lands in shell history. Nothing needs hiding, which is the point of choosing it: the setup runs before the shell exists and never writes to the PTY's input side, so there is nothing to echo and no fan-out gate to build. Two things were wrong in the first version and both were found by running it against real shells rather than the fake one. bash: the DEBUG trap fires before every simple command *including each one inside PROMPT_COMMAND*, so $? read from there is whatever ran a moment ago -- every command reported success. The status is captured in the trap now, which also removes the two-entry PROMPT_COMMAND dance entirely. zsh: $ZDOTDIR is already ours by the time .zshenv runs, so the shims were sourcing themselves and none of the user's configuration loaded; the original is passed on the exec line. Parsing is server-side. The `behind` path resets the terminal and replays a truncated scrollback, so a client parser routinely sees a finish with no start; two tabs share one shell and can disagree; and what comes out of this ends up inside a prompt, so deriving it here leaves nothing to disbelieve. The bytes are fanned out unchanged -- xterm consumes an OSC it has no handler for. Output is bounded head and tail, 48KB and 16KB: a build that fails ten megabytes in has the invocation at the top and the error at the bottom. Carriage returns collapse to the last state of each line, which is the difference between a usable prompt and two megabytes of spinner. The fence is sized to its content, because output containing three backticks would otherwise break out and read as prose. Any shell that is not bash or zsh starts exactly as it did before. The buttons then scrape the screen and say so, and Auto is disabled rather than degraded: forty arbitrary lines on every message is worse than nothing. Also a generic [data-resize] handle, keyboard included, persisted the way the theme is. The inspector and sidebar can have it whenever they want it.

A directory the model knows about, and @ to name a file in it
An agent chat used to open with the model knowing the name of a machine and nothing about what was on it, so the first two rounds of every reply went on finding out. It now gets a listing: one read-only command, `git ls-files` where that works and `find` otherwise, falling back to an SFTP walk that always does. git first because a repository already carries somebody's considered list of what is not part of the project, and reproducing it by hand is how an index ends up mostly build output. The listing is budgeted rather than dumped. A tree of a thousand files is worse than no tree -- it costs the window on every request forever and buries the four names that mattered -- so directories that will not fit are shown as a count and the model is told to open one itself. Collapsing picks the deepest and largest first: by saving alone it would take `src/` before `src/web/static/vendor/`, because it contains it, and lose every name worth having. Read from a cache and never fetched. `harness.context_variables` is synchronous and sits on the request path; the walk happens in the generation setup, which is async and already doing network work, with a short wait. A chat whose first reply outruns its first walk simply has no listing that turn and the fragment disappears rather than appearing as an empty heading. Then `@`, over the same index and over the library, and `/` for commands with an Alt-based keyboard for the same jobs. A mentioned file arrives as contents, not a reference -- a small model asked to call file_read often does not bother -- and it arrives with its absolute path and the machine it came from, because a model handed `main.py` cannot tell which of four it is and cannot name it back when asked to change something. The rule that matters for `/`: a message that merely starts with a slash still sends. `//` escapes and an unrecognised command is posted as written. Swallowing somebody's message is a much worse failure than an unknown command. Two exceptions to Manual mode now, not one. Browsing and indexing are a person acting, not a model, so neither passes through policy.py -- the same argument the terminal panel rests on.

The composer decides what a chat is, and the topbar stops trying
The mode select in the topbar posted with hx-post against a route that only answers PATCH, so every change returned 405 and the mode never moved. htmx shows nothing when a request fails, so the control looked like it worked: the select stayed where you put it and the server ignored you. It has never worked. Two more of the same kind. A mode could not be chosen at all until the chat existed, so reaching Plan meant sending something in Manual first and letting the model answer under the wrong rules. And the project directory box was real and submitted, but unlabelled and squeezed to a few characters by the select beside it, so it read as broken -- which is how it was reported. So the kind, the connection, the directory and the mode move out of the strip above the text and into one toolbar row beneath it, where attach and send already are. The directory becomes a button that opens a browser over SFTP, because a path is something you would rather find than spell. `scan_dir` is new beside `list_dir`: a picker has to tell a directory from a file before it can draw the row, and `list_dir` backs a tool whose contract is a list of names and must not change under a model mid-conversation. Browsing is a person clicking, not a model calling, so it does not pass through policy.py -- the same argument the terminal panel rests on. It does mean Manual mode has a second exception now. Also: .chip was two components with one name, and the attachment card won, so the Chat/Agent pills silently wore its padding. --radius-md was used twice and declared nowhere, so both fell back to 0. .btn.is-active has been set by syncToggles since the terminal landed and styled by nothing. Enter-to-send ignored isComposing, so committing an IME candidate sent the message. The terminal had five colours of a sixteen-colour palette, with fallbacks from a palette that no longer exists.

A terminal panel beside an agent chat
A real shell on the chat's own connection, opened and closed like the inspector and never beside it. The modes govern the model; what a person types is theirs, since they hold the credential and could open the same shell with an ssh client. The model cannot see the panel -- a button copies the output you choose into the composer. The session outlives the socket: closing the panel leaves a build running, and coming back reattaches with the scrollback. Two tabs share one shell and the smaller window decides the size. It ends on an idle timeout, on deleting the chat, on disabling, moving or deleting the connection, and on a restart -- which says why rather than quietly opening a fresh shell that has lost the working directory. The nginx template's `Connection ""` is right for SSE and fails every WebSocket handshake, so `location /` now uses a `map $http_upgrade`; update.sh grows a drift check for it, because the only symptom on a stale vhost is a panel that cannot connect.

Agent chats run commands, and stop to ask first
The four tools an agent chat has -- shell_run, file_read, file_write, file_list -- and the mode table wired into the loop that decides which of them stop for approval. Verified end to end against a real Kali container over SSH: the card shows the command, allowing it runs it there, and the file it writes is visible from outside. The mode is enforced in `_authorise`, in the generation loop, server-side, keyed on each tool's declared risk. Not in the prompt: a model is told which mode it is in so it behaves sensibly, but everything it reads -- a web page, a README, the output of the last command -- is untrusted, and a rule written only into a system message is one a poisoned file can argue with. Within an agent chat every call goes through the table, including the built-in ones, because notes_edit writes and Plan mode meaning "look but do not touch" has to mean that too. Two things this turned up. The runners re-check the mode as a backstop, and that backstop refused the very thing a person had just approved -- the mode says "ask", and asking was exactly what happened. Approval is now threaded per call, on a copy of the context, because a round runs its calls together and only some of them were allowed. And the harness said nothing at all, because `registry` maps an offered tool *name* back to a family and did not know the agent tools existed. So shell_run resolved to no family and the fragment naming the machine, the directory and the mode was never admitted. The same omission cost custom tools their guidance once already; there is a test for it now. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

A reply can stop and ask you something
Three features turn out to be one mechanism: a command waiting to be approved, a question the model wants answered, and "this reply is waiting for you" are all — stop the generation, put an interactive block in the bubble, wait for a POST, carry on. So there is one primitive, and the only thing using it so far is `ask_user`: a model can offer you a few answers and a box to write your own. The shell executor is not here yet. This lands first on purpose, because it is the riskiest machinery in the feature and it is worth having working before any subprocess exists to complicate it. Two things about where the pause sits. It pauses a round, not a call: a round's calls run together under a semaphore, and parking four coroutines on four separate answers inside that gather would queue them behind each other invisibly. And Stop had to be taught about it — `cancel` is read between streamed chunks and there are no chunks while paused, so the button did nothing at all until `request_stop` learned to resolve the pause itself. Also here: a risk class on every tool (read, write, execute), which is what the four permission modes will be a table over, and the systemd unit loses ProtectKernelTunables. That last one is not tidying — it bind-mounts /proc/sys read-only, which stops bubblewrap mounting /proc at all, and the obvious workaround would expose this process's environment and with it the encryption key.

A suggestion card sends its prompt
Filling the composer and waiting for Enter made the card a form to review rather than a thing to press. One click, one reply. That changes what a prompt has to be. The built-ins ended mid-sentence -- "My plan: " -- because nothing was sent until the person finished the thought; sent cold they are a model guessing at material nobody gave it. All three are rewritten to ask for what they need, so the first reply is the right question instead. There is a test that they end as complete sentences, since the failure is silent and only visible in the answer. requestSubmit, not submit: it fires the submit event, which is what htmx listens for. Same call the Enter key already makes. Version bumped because app.js is what changed, and the service worker caches it -- without the bump the first load after this would still only fill the box.

Prompt suggestions on the new-chat screen
A blank composer is the least helpful thing a chat client can show someone who has just installed one. Three cards now sit under the empty state, and an administrator manages them at /admin/suggestions. Clicking a card fills the composer and stops there. It deliberately does not send: every default ends mid-sentence, because a card is a starting point rather than a question somebody already asked, and the caret lands where the person has to start typing. Seeding is guarded by a settings flag, not by "is the table empty" -- otherwise an administrator who decided against them would get all three back on every restart. Capped at twelve, six shown: past a dozen this is a menu, and a menu on the empty screen is a worse blank page than a blank page. The cards are gated on there being no chat at all, not on the thread being empty. An empty chat someone opened on purpose already has a model and a prompt chosen. Also fixes a pre-existing bug the position test caught. Both this and _refresh_models wrote `coalesce(max(position), -1) or -1`, and position 0 is falsy -- so the second row landed back on 0 on top of the first. The coalesce was already doing that job; the `or` was undoing it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Knowledge, notes, memory and skills, and a harness to make them used
Four places a model can reach for, differing in who writes a record and how it gets in front of the model. **Knowledge** is uploaded by a person and searched by the model. It goes through `services/files.py:prepare` — the same pipeline as a chat attachment — so the same PDF produces the same text whichever way it arrived, and `Document` carries the same content columns as `Attachment` for the same reason. **Notes** are written by the model and edited by you. Too long to inject, so they are searched. **Memory** is short facts, and every one of them goes into every request. That single decision is where the rest of its design comes from: records are capped short, the block has a budget, there is no search tool because the model is already looking at them, and they are not shareable — a record about a person is not content to hand round. **Skills** are saved procedures. Only the name and description are injected; the body is fetched when the model decides one applies, which is what makes a hundred skills affordable. A model may write and revise its own — the safety story is not a gate but a record: every revision is kept, attributed and revertible. A model that has just read a hostile page can save a skill that outlives the conversation, and the honest mitigation is that it is visible and undoable rather than that it was prevented. **The harness** is why any of it gets used. A model handed a tools array ignores it and answers from recall, because nothing in the request suggests otherwise. `services/harness.py` assembles a preamble from what this chat actually has: when to reach for each tool, the memories, the skill index. This is an exception to "system prompts are precedence, not concatenation", and a deliberate one. That rule governs the three *authored* layers and is untouched — exactly one still wins. The harness is a different axis: it describes the machinery rather than the behaviour, nobody authored it, and there is nothing for it to disagree with. It is prepended to whichever authored prompt won, in one system message, since several endpoints reject a second. Supporting changes: - **Sharing**, in one helper. `visible_to()` is the only definition of who can see a library item and every listing and tool goes through it. Sharing grants *reading*; two people editing one note with no history and no merge is worse than copying it. **Administrators do not bypass this** — they bypass permissions elsewhere because an admin can grant themselves those anyway, but reading somebody's private notes is a different act. - **FTS5**, created by `db/migrations.py:ensure_fts` with the triggers an external-content index needs. Idempotent, like the column sync beside it. Terms are ANDed and then ORed: the caller is usually a model writing a whole question, and requiring every word loses the match on one absent term. - **The attach button is a menu** — file, image, a web page, or a document from the library. Attaching a document copies it, because history must not change when a document is edited later. - **A URL fetcher with an SSRF guard.** This server can reach the router, the other services on the box and LLeMbas itself, and the address can come from a model. Private ranges are refused *after resolution* and redirects are followed by hand so every hop is checked. An admin can open it deliberately. - **Model capabilities split** into protocol support and a toggle per built-in tool. Rows predating the split have no `tool_*` keys, and absent counts as on when `tools` is on — otherwise an upgrade silently takes web search away from every model already configured for it. Also fixes the test fixture, which built the schema with `create_all` and so ran against a database without the FTS tables production has; it now runs `sync_schema`, the same path startup takes. 430 tests, ruff clean.

PWA, one send/stop button, audio in and out, web search as a tool
Four pieces of work.
**Installable.** A manifest carrying the instance name, PWA icons rasterised
from the existing mark at design time, a service worker and a themed offline
page. The worker caches the shell only and bails out on /api/, /auth/, /admin/
and anything accepting text/event-stream -- passing a reply stream through a
worker turns it into one delivery at the end, or nothing. It is served from
GET /sw.js rather than the static mount because a worker's scope is the path it
came from.
**Send and Stop are one button.** They were two, and the hidden one was never
hidden: `.btn` is display: inline-flex, which outranks the browser's own
`[hidden] { display: none }`, so Stop sat permanently beside Send. app.css now
forces the attribute to win -- every control toggled with `hidden` depended on
that -- and the composer renders one button carrying both icons, with ui.js
flipping data-composer-action and the type with it.
**Audio.** Speech to text and text to speech against any OpenAI-shaped
/v1/audio/* endpoint: dictate into the composer, have a reply read out.
Instance settings in Admin, per-reader overrides in Settings, with the voice
list discovered from the server where it offers one. Recorded audio is capped
and never written to disk -- it is not an attachment, it has no owner, and
nothing would ever sweep it.
**Web search, as a tool.** This is the tool loop PLAN.md described as the real
work: one reply is now a bounded sequence of requests rather than one. The model
asks, the tool runs, the result goes back and it is asked again, up to three
rounds. Providers are DuckDuckGo (no setup), SearXNG and Firecrawl.
Two decisions worth stating. Tools are only offered to models flagged `tools`,
because an endpoint without support rejects the whole request rather than
ignoring the array -- the same reason images only reach models flagged
`vision`. And tool results are not replayed as context on the next turn, for the
same reasons reasoning is not: the answer already contains what the model made
of them, and replaying stale results into every later request wastes the window
and reliably sends a small model into a search loop. The sources stay visible in
the transcript instead.
Search results are untrusted third-party text and are treated as such: escaped,
and only http/https URLs rendered as links.

Background generation, unread replies, send/stop, PLAN.md
**Replies now run in the background.** Generation was driven by the SSE request, so navigating away or opening another chat cut the answer off mid-sentence. services/generation.py owns the work as its own task and the SSE endpoint merely follows it. Verified: attached briefly, closed the connection, went to another page -- the reply finished anyway, 832 characters, not marked stopped, auto-titled. Reattaching works because both `render` and `reasoning` frames now carry the whole block rather than a delta. A follower arriving late has no earlier fragments to append to, so deltas would leave it permanently missing the beginning. Verified: attached six seconds in and the first frame already contained 517 characters written while nobody watched. **Unread indicator.** A reply that lands with no follower attached marks its chat unread; the sidebar polls every 10s for out-of-band dot spans plus an HX-Trigger that raises a toast. Polled rather than pushed: a browser sitting on another chat has no connection to the one that finished, and an always-on channel per tab is a lot of machinery for a green dot. `unread_notified` stops the same arrival being announced every tick. Follower count is what decides "was anyone watching", so reading it as it arrives does not mark it unread -- verified both ways. **Stop is the send button.** While a reply is being written the send button becomes a red stop square, found via a MutationObserver on the thread since the composer and the streaming bubble are far apart in the document. The in-bubble Stop is gone. **Attachment border removed.** As asked -- an attachment is a picture, and the frame only ever drew at the wrong width. The anchor now shrink-wraps and the img's width/height attributes are overridden so a small image shows at its own size. Adds PLAN.md: what is built, what is not, known limits, and the decisions that look like oversights until you know the reason. 239 tests, ruff clean.

Live Markdown, stop, rewind, custom picker, dialogs
Seven things. **Reasoning starts closed.** The answer is what the reader is waiting for; the thinking is one click away. **Image borders.** .attachments__image was a block-level <a>, so its border stretched the full column around a narrow picture. inline-block, and the frame is the picture. Same fix for the composer thumbnail. **Markdown now renders during the stream.** The generator re-renders the answer so far and sends it as a `render` event at most every 100ms, swapped with innerHTML, instead of appending escaped tokens and formatting everything at the end. Re-rendering whole rather than appending is the point: a list or a code fence is only correct once its context exists, and partial syntax resolves itself as more arrives. Measured against a live model: 29 render events, formatting visible from the first content token. **Stop button.** A stop request goes into an in-process set the generator checks between chunks; whatever arrived is kept, because a half-written answer the reader chose to cut short is still worth having. Measured: stream ended 0.2s after the request, 1155 characters preserved, message marked stopped rather than errored. Navigating away does the same thing via CancelledError. **Rewind and edit.** Edit one of your own turns and everything after it is deleted, then the conversation runs on from there. Deliberately not branching: that needs a UI for choosing between versions, and "go back and try again from here" is what was asked for. The form states how many messages will be discarded before you confirm. **Custom model picker.** A <select> renders only text in an <option>, so it can never show an avatar. Built from buttons and a hidden input, with descriptions, capability tags, a filter box past eight models, and arrow-key navigation written out by hand since there is no native widget doing it. **Notification system.** lembas.notify/confirm/prompt in ui.js, built on <dialog> so focus trapping, Escape and page inertness come from the browser. htmx:confirm is intercepted, so every existing hx-confirm gets the themed dialog with no change at the call site; the browser's grey confirm() is gone from every template. 230 tests, ruff clean.

Fix attachments never being sent with the message
Uploading an image showed the chip and then did nothing: the file was stored but never reached the model. Two causes, both in the composer template. The chips live in #attachments, and each carries the hidden file_ids input that binds it to the message. That container sat OUTSIDE the <form>, with an `hx-include="#attachments"` on a hidden <div> inside the form meant to pull it back in. That attribute only has an effect on the element issuing the request -- on a child of it, it does nothing. So the form serialised content and nothing else, and post_message saw no file_ids at all. Fixed by putting #attachments inside the form, where the inputs are submitted because they are in the form, rather than because of an attribute that has to be wired correctly. The file input stays outside, since inside it would submit an empty file part on every message. Second: /chat preselected models[0] rather than the model a new chat would actually use. With a vision model set as the default and a non-vision one first in the admin ordering, the composer showed the wrong model, sent the wrong model, and told the user images *would* be sent when they would not. It now resolves through default_model(), the same path /start uses. Every server-side test passed throughout, because the bug was entirely in the wiring between template and browser. Added tests that serialise the rendered form the way a browser does -- every named input inside <form> -- and assert file_ids is among them and the image reaches the model as a content part. Verified they fail with the old markup restored, then pass again. Confirmed end to end against gemma4-e4b-q8: given a drawing, it replied "Left: Green Circle / Right: Orange Triangle". 220 tests, ruff clean.

Split the model admin into a list and a page per model
/admin/models rendered a full edit form for every model. With eight that
was merely long; with a hundred it was unusable, which is the report.
The list is now compact rows only -- avatar, name, badges, position,
reorder buttons, Edit link -- with search across id and display name,
filter tabs (All / Enabled / Disabled / Pinned / Restricted, each with a
count), a connection filter, and pagination at 40. Filters are links, so
a filtered view is a real URL you can keep. Editing moved to
/admin/models/{id}/edit, one model per page, with Previous/Next links so
a freshly imported connection can be tidied without returning to the
list each time.
Measured with 128 models: the list is 73 KB showing 40 rows over 4
pages, and a detail page is 17 KB. The old page would have rendered all
128 forms into one response.
Reordering needed rethinking at that size too. Up/down is fine for
nudging a model one place but hopeless for moving it sixty, so the
detail page has a position field you type into; the value is clamped and
a non-numeric one is ignored rather than throwing. The move buttons take
a `back` field so they return to whatever filtered, paginated view they
were pressed on instead of dumping you at page 1.
Also adds a select-all checkbox for the bulk bar, scoped to a container
selector rather than the page so a future list can carry more than one.
212 tests, ruff clean.

Fix bulk actions, create chats lazily, rework the UI
Seven reported problems.
**Bulk model actions 404'd.** /admin/models/{model_id} was registered
before /admin/models/bulk, and FastAPI matches in registration order, so
"bulk" was parsed as a model id. Moved above the parameterised route,
with a comment saying why, and a regression test.
**Empty chats piled up.** There is now no endpoint that creates one.
"New chat" is a link to /chat, which renders a composer with no row
behind it, and POST /api/chats/start writes the chat together with its
first message. Opening one and walking away leaves nothing.
**Pinning meant two different things.** The picker is now always in the
administrator's position order; pinned models get shortcuts in the chat
sidebar and nothing else. A picker whose order silently differs from the
admin screen is just confusing.
**Model images were missing in chat.** Assistant bubbles now show the
avatar of the model that actually wrote the turn -- which is not always
the model the chat is set to now -- falling back to the LLeMbas mark.
The picker shows it too.
**No global or per-model system prompt.** Three layers now: instance
(Admin -> General), model (Admin -> Models), chat. Precedence, not
concatenation: most specific wins outright. Stacking them reads well in
a settings screen and badly in practice, because two layers that
disagree give the model contradictory instructions and nobody can tell
which is losing. The chat panel shows the inherited prompt as
placeholder text so "leave empty to inherit" is not a guess.
**Alignment and button sizing.** Added --control-h and friends to
tokens.css; every button, input and select takes its height from them,
so a mixed row is flush by construction rather than by per-instance
nudging. Icon buttons are square at that height. Added .btn-row,
.card__header/.card__footer and .grid so pages stop carrying inline
styles, and moved every admin page onto them.
**Settings needed structure.** The user settings page is now tabbed
(Account / Models / Appearance / Security) using radio inputs and
sibling selectors -- no JavaScript, and the browser keeps the chosen tab
across a re-render.
Caught while checking: the chat.css surgery had deleted the attachment,
chip and dropzone rules. Restored, and there is now a check that every
literal class used in a template has a CSS rule.
197 tests, ruff clean.

File attachments: images for vision, PDFs and text into the prompt
Drag, paste or pick a file in the composer. Images go to vision models as multimodal content parts; PDFs and text files have their content extracted and placed in the prompt. Verified end to end against gemma4-e4b-q8 on llama-swap: given a drawing and a text file, it named the red square and blue circle and read the number out of the document. Type is decided by inspecting the bytes, never the filename or the browser's Content-Type -- a .png full of text is stored as text. Images are downscaled to 1400px and re-encoded: a phone photo is several megabytes of base64, which is slow and a large slice of the context window. PDF text is extracted once, at upload, and stored; re-extracting per request would let a reply change because a parser was upgraded. Design points worth keeping: - Images are only sent to models an administrator has marked `vision`. This is not graceful degradation -- most endpoints reject the entire request rather than ignoring an image part. A plain text turn stays a plain string for the same reason: the list form 400s on endpoints that do not implement it. - Images reach the model as base64 data URIs, not links. A local endpoint has no route back to LLeMbas, and a hosted one has no credentials for it. - Non-images are served Content-Disposition: attachment with nosniff, so an uploaded .html can never execute in this origin. Stored names are random; the uploader's name is a label and never a path. - Uploads are unbound until the message is sent, which is what lets a file be removed beforehand. claim() only takes unclaimed rows owned by the sender, so a forged id cannot pull in someone else's file. Abandoned uploads are swept at startup. - A scanned PDF says so rather than silently contributing nothing, and truncation is declared to the model in the document tag so it can admit it did not see page 400. - "Here, look at this" with no words is a legitimate turn, so a message is only empty when it carries neither text nor files. Also fixes auto-titling, which read message["content"] as a string and would have broken on the first multimodal turn. 186 tests, ruff clean.

Working chat: auth, connections, streaming, folders
LLeMbas now runs end to end. Register, add an OpenAI-compatible connection, and hold a real streaming conversation organised into folders. Verified against the local llama-swap instance. Streaming is the one genuinely tricky part. Sending a message returns two HTML fragments -- the user bubble and an empty assistant bubble carrying an sse-connect -- and that attribute is the ONLY thing that starts a generation. Rendering an incomplete assistant message as a streaming shell falls out of the same template, which means loading a page whose last reply never finished simply picks it up again. Details worth knowing about, each commented where it matters: - SSE payloads are split across several data: lines. A raw newline in one data: line truncates the event, which shows up the first time a model emits a code block. - Markdown is rendered server-side by the same helper for both the page and the final streamed frame, so the two cannot disagree. The fence renderer is replaced outright rather than using markdown-it's highlight option, which re-wraps output in a second <pre>. - escape_text is html.escape, not nh3.clean_text: it escapes character by character, so escaping stream chunks separately equals escaping the whole string. - The stream opens its own session via session_scope(); it outlives the request handler and the dependency-scoped session may be closed. - Deleting a folder keeps the chats inside it (FK is SET NULL). Losing a conversation to a mis-clicked folder delete is unforgivable. - Login failures use one message for "no such account" and "wrong password" so the form cannot enumerate registered addresses. Also adds deploy/ for the gamebox install at https://chat.lan: system unit, nginx vhost with buffering off (buffering on turns streaming into one lump at the end), and install/update scripts following the same service-user and /srv bind-mount conventions as llama-swap and comfyui. 70 tests, ruff clean.
